Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences There are several pronunciation problems that students of English will face in Japan; however, I will focus on two. 1. Differences in the phonetic systems of two languages 2. Lack of exposure to authentic English resources Do you want to teach English abroad? Take a TEFL course today! Related Articles: This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Brandie K. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. The first of these problems they face is the fact that Japanese doesn't have some of the same sounds in its' alphabet as English does. For example, Japanese does not have a hard R sound; instead, it has a sound that is a mix of R and L. So, when students from Japan go to say rice, for many...  [Read more]

A Level 5 TEFL course and CELTA are both classified as level 5 qualifications, indicating they share a similar degree of rigor and difficulty. However, it is crucial to note that while they are on the same level, they aren't synonymous. ITTT's Level 5 TEFL is designed to give new teachers a significant advantage in the job market, broadening their employment opportunities. Yet, even though it is on par in terms of level, the content, methodology, and delivery of a Level 5 TEFL and a standard CELTA course can differ considerably. So, while both credentials are highly respected, they cater to different aspects of English language teaching. How are the different course levels decided?

When choosing between TEFL and CELTA, it is essential to understand their specific strengths: In essence, while both certifications are valuable, the choice between TEFL and CELTA largely depends on your target teaching audience and career goals. What does TEFL mean? What does CELTA mean? Which is better, TEFL or CELTA? What if a course doesn't meet this criteria? Does the location of the course affect its quality? TEFL, or Teaching English as a Foreign Language, broadly encompasses any training or certification aimed at individuals who wish to teach English, whether locally, abroad, or online. It does not denote a specific course or certification. Upon researching, you will find countless TEFL course providers offering a variety of courses differing in duration, cost, and quality....  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas In my opinion, Grammar plays an important role in English Learning and Teaching, because Grammar is the heart of any language. Learning English is the same as building a house and its grammar acts as a foundation and frame. Knowledge of English grammar helps us in the correction of mistakes and improvement of writing work. A person cannot learn a foreign language accurately only through a process of unconscious assimilation. Grammar and Linguistics 1. The formal grammar helps us speak correctly in English: 2. Grammar helps us communicate correctly: 3. Grammar helps us improve communication skills: 4. Writing and speaking in formal grammar will increase the value of personal branding. 5.
